No mini naming thread would be complete without my customary rant about mini names not actually being necessary, so here goes...

I have no idea why people feel the need to name their mini's! As far as I'm concerened you simply don't need to name it because it's an inanimate object and the mentaly stable don't assign personal names to inanimate objects! If you're going to name your car, then why don't you name your fridge, TV, hair dryer, and cordless drill as well? The only reason to give your car a name, is so that you have a term by which to refer to it, which you already have, it's called your mini! If you have more than one mini and therefore the need to refer to one, as opposed to the other, then you could always do as I do, and refer to each by their colour!!

If you don't happen to agree then don't bother arguing with me about it here, go and debate it with your toaster instead, or "Brian" as you probably call it!

Bah Humbug!!!

I completely agree lol

Very imaginative name...
